Droplet jumping by modulated electrowetting

Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran

We investigate jumping of sessile droplets from a solid surface in ambient oil using modulated electrowetting actuation. We focus on the case in which the electrowetting effect is…

Unsteady wetting of soft solids

Surjyasish Mitra, Quoc Vo, Marcus Lin +1

From hydrogels and plastics to liquid crystals, soft solids cover a wide array of synthetic and biological materials that play key enabling roles in advanced technologies such as 3…

Viscous droplet impingement on soft substrates

Marcus Lin, Quoc Vo, Surjyasish Mitra +1

Viscous droplets impinging on soft substrates may exhibit several distinct behaviours including repeated bouncing, wetting, and hovering, i.e., spreading and retracting after impac…

Bouncing-to-wetting transition for impact of water droplets on soft solids

Surjyasish Mitra, Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran

Soft surfaces impacted by liquid droplets trap more air underneath than their rigid counterpart. The extended lifetime of the air film not only facilitates bouncing behaviours of t…

Droplet ejection by electrowetting actuation

Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran

Fast contact-line motion of a droplet spreading on a solid substrate under the electrowetting effect generates strong capillary waves on the droplet's surface. The capillary waves…

Dynamics of droplets under electrowetting effect with voltages exceeding the contact angle saturation threshold

Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran

Electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) is a powerful tool in many droplet-manipulation applications with a notorious weakness caused by contact-angle saturation (CAS), a phenomenon li…
